• 8 to 10 metal or soaked wooden skewers
• Lemon wedges for serving
• Fresh chopped parsley for garnish

Equipment

• 1 Large mixing bowl For marinating the lamb and seasoning
• 1 whisk For blending the marinade
• 1 Cutting board For prepping lamb and vegetables
• 1 Chef’s knife For even kabob pieces
• 8 to 10 Metal skewers or wooden skewers Soak wooden skewers before grilling

Method

 

Instructions

1. 1. In a large bowl, whisk together the Spearmint Infused Olive Oil, lemon juice, garlic, kosher salt, black pepper, cumin, and oregano.
2. 2. Add the lamb cubes and toss until every piece is coated. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes or up to 4 hours.
3. 3. While the lamb marinates, cut the bell peppers, onion, and zucchini into even pieces.
4. 4. Thread the lamb, bell peppers, onion, and zucchini onto skewers, alternating the ingredients for a balanced mix of color and texture.
5. 5. Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium-high heat and lightly oil the grates if needed.
6. 6. Grill the kabobs for 10 to 14 minutes total, turning every few minutes, until the lamb is browned on the outside and cooked to your preferred doneness and the vegetables are lightly charred and tender.
7. 7. Transfer the kabobs to a platter, rest them for 3 to 5 minutes, and finish with parsley and lemon wedges before serving.

Notes

For the best texture, keep the lamb pieces close in size so they finish together. If you are using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes before grilling. The recipe tastes brightest when served right off the grill with a squeeze of lemon.

Recipe Tips

Cut the lamb and vegetables into even pieces so they grill at the same pace. If you want stronger mint character, let the kabobs marinate a little longer in the refrigerator, but keep the timing realistic so the lamb texture stays tender. Soak wooden skewers well before assembling, or use metal skewers if that is what you keep on hand.

Serving Suggestions

Serve these kabobs over fluffy rice, warm pita, or a simple cucumber salad. They also fit nicely with grilled corn, roasted potatoes, or a bright tomato and herb side for a full Mediterranean-style dinner.

Storage

Store leftover lamb and vegetables in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently in a skillet or low oven so the lamb stays juicy instead of drying out.

Variations

Swap in chunks of sirloin if you want a beef version, or add cherry tomatoes and mushrooms for extra grill color. You can also finish the cooked kabobs with a little extra Spearmint Infused Olive Oil for a brighter herbal finish.
